• Experience using LinkedIn, job boards and ATS systems
• Great communication and relationship-building skills
• A proactive, solution-oriented approach
• Plenty of positive energy and a genuine interest in people. Why AEC? A genuine 9-5 - Monday to Friday, with no expectation that recruitment should take over your evenings. Uncapped commission - moving in-house doesn't mean giving up the opportunity to earn more. Hybrid working - up to two days working from home each week after probation. Stability - we're an established and growing business, operating since 1997. Employee ownership - AEC is employee-owned, giving our people a real stake in the success of the business.
